Hello!

I have access to a big server, which consists of six servers each with 2 processors

the idea is to create a virtual machine on Linux and connect all processing units (CPUs), set it on 50% power, and get a total of 108 gigahertz (GHz), not gigahash

Does anyone have experience with this type of mining, and what mining program do You recommend?


Else:

I want to buy a few Antminer S5 or S7, but I am looking for a middleman or reseller in the EU, because I want to avoid additional costs for imports, customs duties.

Thank you in advance on important answers.

Regards.

If you don't believe it or don't get it, I don't have the time to try to convince you, sorry.

The server's.... your years to late.  You might be able to run them but CPU mining is pretty hard area to make profit.  And a lot would depend how many cores each processor has.  All processors are not equal.

But EU is a pretty harsh place to start mining.  You cannot avoid the VAT and such without lying... which I see as bad.  Your resellers will be high in EU always are. I suggest if you do mine find a good hosting center for them in a place not in the EU.  You will end up much better in the long run this way.

I will still give a try minig with CPU power, with some altcoins

Do you have expereience, have you already bought some mining hardware? I am very suspicious to buy something on the net, there are lot of scams...
I will make my own rig on a safe place of a friend of mine, he has a deal with special electricity power price, effective, he is paying less than the half price, so we have to setup the miners asap

It depends on what price the electricity is not all "deals" are the same.  As far as current gen it's really A6 or S7.  Either one you can buy direct from the company.   And also it depends on how many you need.

But again we need more info to help "less than the half price" does not tell us anything.

Try it if you think it will be fun, instructive or interesting. I'd be stunned if there was any way to do anything but lose money with this approach. Have fun, but don't expect to even cover a small portion of your electric costs.

You might want to try one of the alt-coin forums for better answers, though not more profitable ones.

It's sad but he will be lucky to pay off electricity costs CPU mining.   And if these truly are good servers they would make much more money doing something else.  I would sell the servers and buy BTC if they are truly extra.

A server will not ROI on cpu mining.   It is years to late.  I have thought about and cant figure why access to 6 nice servers..... if these are your work's I would suggest not even loading mining software for your benefit.. and your job.

only eth was profitable with gpu, eve more than bitcoin, but it is tanking already and the diff shooting up

so nothing again look promosing, in the mining scene it's all about catching the right time, there is no more continuous mining anymore

The regular price in my country is 0,11$ per kWh, the special price that my friens has is 0,047$ on daily use from 9am to 9pm and 0,023$ on night use from 9pm to 9am

so, I think that we can make good profit


Is it safe to buy hardware from this site? https://www.bitmain.com/   do you have already bought from those guys?

If you don't believe it or don't get it, I don't have the time to try to convince you, sorry.
